Serves/Makes: 32 | Ready In: 30-60 minutes
Ingredients:
12 cups all-purpose flour
6 eggs
2 cups granulated sugar
4 cups milk
2 tablespoons cinnamon
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 lemons, zested
***Finish***
milk
granulated sugar
colored sprinkles
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Place flour in a mound on a board. Create a well in the center. Using a fork or your fingers, like when you make pasta, mix the flour with the liquid ingredients alternating with the dry ingredients.
Once all the ingredients are mixed in knead the dough until smooth. Divide into 4 equal parts, roll into logs and then into coils (like cinnamon rolls). Brush the tops lightly with the milk. Sprinkle with a little sugar and lots of sprinkles. Bake about 40 minutes or until lightly golden brown.
Cook's Notes: Is it cake or is it bread? Well it's both. This bread is popular in the region of Rome.
